The plan is exactly the same as any other topic. Keep in "next" to cook so that parties that do care can try it out, list the topic in the regular "What's cooking" message, so that parties that do care have enough chance to find possible issues before it causes problems to people by hitting "master". And get annoyed to hear issues only after the topic graduates to "master". Because somethings things happen, try not to be too upset when that happens. Instead, help people to fix issues before the release.

At least that has been the plan for me personally.
